12v Key on Accessory power

I'm trying to find key on power for my airlift compressor in the fuse box under the hood using a micro “add a circuit”. There only seems to be a few that are powered with key on. The add a circuit will not fit in any of these spots. The plastic edges of the fuse box won’t allow it go in all the way. Any other places to look? I don’t have the upfitter switches where it seems most people hook up to.

Here is a link to a thread I posted for installing a rechargeable flashlight. I wired it to a 12V accessory power position on the passenger side kick panel fuse box inside the cab. About 2/3 of the way down my post is a picture of the fuse panel with a white arrow pointing to my chosen fuse location.

You could access the fuse panel using the pass through wires that go from the engine bay to just above this fuse panel.

I brought the power wire into the cab following the plow control harness and hooked into the fuse box like you did. Worked great. Thanks!! I was just surprised there was no where under the hood to connect to.
